Description

Is the naturally occurring form of vitamin D3. Vitamin D3, MP Biomedicals mediates intestinal calcium absorption, bone metabolism, and probably muscle activity. It functions as a hormone precursor and acts through a receptor that is a member of the ligand

It acts as a hormone precursor since it requires two stages of metabolism: first to 25-hydroxycholecalciferol; then to 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol.

  • Modulates the proliferation and differentiation of both normal and cancer cells
  • Has antiproliferative and antimetastatic effects on breast, colon, and prostate cancer cells
  • Activated vitamin D receptors in intestine and bone maintain calcium absorbance and homeostasis
